Middle Eastern Feast

Last night I made my typical middle eastern fare. On the menu was:

• Home-made hummus
  
• Tabouli with lots of tomatoes and cucumber in there for tastiness
• Chicken chunks with lemon herb pc memories of Greece sauce for Ian (very deelightful for quick and tasty baked chicken)
  
• Roasted veggies (asian eggplant, squash, potatoes, onion, zucchini, peppers)
• Rice with lentils.
  

Of course, Ian was hungry about 1 hour later and polished off a row of PC choc chunk cookies with a couple of glasses of soy milk.

As for wine, we consulted our new "Billy's Best Bottles" book that Ian's parents got us. Since the middle eastern people don't seem to drink that much or produce wine, we had to come up with something sorta on our own.

I decided to go with one of Billy's "Fresh White" picks, Concha Y Toro 2006 Sauvignon Blanc "Casillero del Diablo" from Chile ($10.95). As Billy promised, it did end up being light and refreshing. His food ideas for this type of wine were goat cheese, asparagus, sushi, oysters, chicken with herbs and most appetizers.










Check out the nice looking vineyard!











Then we watched the movie "Kiss the Girls", which has lots of potential for scariness, but turned out to be a pretty good thriller/mystery movie.
